How this is measured
We take the median price per sqft of ready villas sold in each area over the last four quarters, every size together. That set also counts sales whose record has no bedroom count, or a room type that is not one, such as an office. Ranking by price per sqft keeps small units from winning on size alone. An area needs at least 30 sales to be ranked. Data checks
What this does not tell you
- Areas are cheaper for reasons such as age and distance. The median says what sold, not what a particular property is worth.
- 7 sales under 269 sqft a bedroom were left out of these prices. DLD records the sale of a share in a property that way.
- Off-plan sales are left out. They are prices for properties not yet built.
These figures describe registered sales and rents. They are not advice on what to buy or rent.
